A Boomer’s Point-of-View: The Decent and the Indecent

Posted on by

Nazi, Hitler, WWII

Mother Teresa

~~ How can the University of California actually declare that the line that, There are two races of people: the decent and the indecent, is racist?

~~ Why are outsiders such as Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson dominating the Republican primary polls (so far)?

~~ How could an avowed Socialist become so important in the Democratic primaries?

~~ Do you believe our country is better or worse since President Obama has been in office?

~~ Other than some good rock ‘n’ roll, what good has my generation – the Baby Boomer’s – done for our country?

~~ Is a government shutdown (ever) a good thing?

These are questions I am asking myself these days and asking you. I am more concerned about our country and the violence worldwide than I’ve ever been. I try to have hope, but I often feel hopeless. I am grateful to have grown up and prospered when I did, but fear immensely for my kids’ futures.

Relationships

My wife and I went out with a recently widowed friend of hers for a post-holiday drink and some poo-poos.

By ourselves, it would have sounded a bit silly.

Dad HATES Valentine's Day - BISS #170

Let’s face it, Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays that polarizes relationships between men and women, and the expectations are off the chart. We men usually can’t get it right. Women look forward to this day as much as the post-Christmas sales. It used to be simple – chocolates and/or flowers and a sweet card. Now, we’re made to feel that our gifts are reflections of our love and their status (in our hearts). Let’s TAKE THIS ON at #DadChat this Thursday, February 12 at 6:00 p.m. PT/9:00 p.m. ET. Your homework is this column, Why Men Hate Valentine’s Day.

If you want a GREAT warm-up to our chat, join the DEBUT of my friend Julie Spira’s #DateChat at 5:00 p.m. PT/8:00 p.m. ET – I’ll be there! Details HERE!

Valentine’s Day: Not a Review of The Five Love Languages

Posted on by

We’ve met some very interesting couples over the years. Interesting in that they were so different from each other, yet they found each other and had what we viewed as terrific relationships. Since my wife and I also have solidly different backgrounds, ethnicities, and religions, we find these other couples fascinating. In light of Valentine’s Day, let’s take a look at these couples, us too, and talk about love. Note: You may enjoy last year’s Valentine’s Day column, Guys Hate Valentine’s Day.
